Scobee Cemetery |
The Scobee Cemetery on the Smith-Scobee farm was moved to Walnut Grove Cemetery in Paris, Monroe County, MO. There are graves that are marked "unknown" in the "Scobee Cemetery" in Walnut Grove Cemetery. The cemetery contained family as well as neighbors. My family owned the land that the cemetery was on from the early 1800's until about the 1940's. I have in my possession the plat of the original cemetery. It contains the following information. The plat is written as a grid 1-24 (running South to North) and A-J (running West to East) A-24 is in the NW corner. J-24 is in the NE corner. A-1 is in the SW corner. J-1 is in the SE corner A road ran along the west side of the cemetery I am copying names exactly as they are written. There are no dates. Anything in [ ] is my comment. Anything in ( ) is written on the paper that way.
